Always Clear Things Up With Him

If the Lord shows you a particular sin in your life (you will know this when it comes up in your mind as you’re confessing), that is your cue to confess that specific sin and ask for forgiveness and repentance. We want to be found holy before Him at all times. This is possible when we’re always talking to the Lord and abiding in His presence. When He deals with us, especially to turn away from something we shouldn’t be doing, it is imperative to talk to Him about it. Especially when we find ourselves insisting on doing what we want to do. Don’t run away from Him and hide things from Him. He knows all things, even the very intentions of our hearts. We cannot hide anything from Him. We are sinners. We will sin. That’s what Christ came here for, so that we don’t have to die the spiritual death that sin brings. We don’t have to suffer for them spiritually. Why would He die for if we can save our own selves? We don’t become deities just because we are filled with the Spirit of God. We will still have our own will. We will still become tempted and snared. We still live in this fallen world. There is no escape for it except through the constant abiding in the presence of God. But sometimes we don’t do that enough. Often times we lean upon our own understanding instead of walking in the Spirit. Hence we end up sinning and falling. But when we do, all we need to do is confess our sins, repent from them, and He will take them away from us. He can take it to Himself to the cross. This is what the scripture means when it said,

Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to His cross. {Colossians 2:14}
